I must be missing something, I am moving my ntp server from freebsd

this a million times with freebsd but I can't figure out what is
different with SuSE.

when I run ntpdate from an of the unix boxes I get this back

Does it work without the authentication requirement? If not, then ensure
the ntp port is open on the internal interface. If it does work, then
have another look at your client config files (ie. do they include the
autokey option in the server definition, etc?)

driftfile /var/lib/ntp/drift/ntp.drift # path for drift file

logfile /var/log/ntp # alternate log file






I took the restrictions out and

rcntp restart
Shutting down network time protocol daemon (NTPD) done
Try to get initial date and time via NTP from 0.north- america.pool.ntdoneg 1.north-america.pool.ntp.org
Starting network time protocol daemon (NTPD) done


Then tried a client and no go.

And the firewall is not running on the suse box and the two machines I am testing with both sit off of a cisco 3550 swtich right next to each other on the same network 192.168.11.10 and 192.168.11.12
